- Freedom, is the answer. You are politically naive. You don't see the
- signs of totalitarianism. This is not meant to flame you. It's just
- that I have been in those situations. One by one your rights will
- diminish. Today the rights of some people who you don't care about
- go away. Tomorrow they will use the same argument in the courts to
- take your rights away. Just Beware, and keep your eyes open.
